Sorry for the long wait guys, I had my exams, then holidays, then had a mind block, and I forgot about it. But now I'm back. For good. (Hopefully) Thank you for reading, and I love reading reviews, and will reply personally to each one thanking you, so please review and I will give you a cookie each as well. :D


Harry watched as Sirius leapt to his feet, nearly dropping him on the floor again, and sprinted to the phone. What an earth was going on to make him act like that? Something big must have happened to cause Sirius to become so agitated. Had someone died?

'Remus, what's the matter with him? Have I done something wrong? I didn't mean it if I did. I can't remember.' Harry nervously spoke with his voice cracking, and his eyes filled with unshed tears. 'He's not going to leave me is he? I couldn't cope with it if he did. Remus?...' Harry was looking up to him now, still lied out on the cold floor.

What was he meant to say? If Harry couldn't remember it, he would sound like a bit of a fool just coming out with 'oh yeah by the way Harry, I like your Godfather. Like Him as more than a friend if you know what I mean?' No that clearly wouldn't work. They would just have to wait until Harry said something himself. 'How are you feeling now Harry, you took quite a fall there.' Remus asked, unsure if Harry believed him.

Sirius strode into the room, shook his hair from his eyes, and looked up seeing 2 worried faces staring at him. 'That was just Mrs Weasley, Saying that they got back ok. Not sure why I needed to know but I'm guessing it's to do with this war stuff and that.'

Harry looked up at his recently acquired father figure, 'Sirius. Remus. I don't know what happened before this.' He gestured himself lied out across the floor. 'But I have something I need to tell you. I don't think you'll like it, but it's to do with my life. And I hope you won't hate me for it.' Harry began to shake, nervous about what he was going to say, as he hadn't admitted it aloud before. 'I mean, I don't think you will, but you might. But I hope you don't.

By this point Sirius was beside himself, he had no clue what Harry was going to say, and hoped that James wouldn't kill him for it whatever happened. He looked across at Remus who he had sat down immediately next to before Harry had begun his speech. His face was also screwed up with worry. Sirius slyly moved his hand slowly, towards Remus' leg placing it upon his thigh, his silent attempt to calm his man down. This in fact worked as he saw Remus' face unwrinkle slowly. He returned his attention to Harry who had begun to talk again.

'I'm Gay.' Harry blurted out suddenly, his eyes closed. He couldn't believe he had finally worked up the courage to tell someone. Or some people. But they were family, or as near to family that he had. Harry opened his eyes slightly, scared at what their expressions would be like, as he hadn't heard so much as a word from them, let alone a gasp or sigh, suggesting what their reaction would be. Sirius had turned away, whilst Remus had his head in his arms leant against the table. Not wanting to talk to them after seeing this, Harry stood up and walked from the room. The journey up the stairs seemed like an eternity, one that would never end which made the pain in his heart worse. He had thought that out of everyone he knew, these two men, who had been through everything, would have accepted him. As he reached the top, Harry decided. He would have to leave, leave this house, leave Hogwarts, leave the wizarding world. He had learnt at a young age what he was, after liking Dudley's friend slightly more than he should have done. But only recently had he truly known. And wanted to tell people, and experiment slightly. He was 15, he knew Ron, George and Fred had done things with people, heck, even Hermione had spent some nights with Viktor back in 4th year. Harry had lied to the guys when it had come up in a game of truth or dare, after hearing their responses. But now he would never see them again. He would have to snap his wand. Maybe not immediately though, he would wait a while.

Meanwhile, back downstairs Sirius turned to Remus. 'We didn't do this to him did we? We couldn't have had this effect on him by being ga-, like it ourselves.' He closed his eyes, Harry was stronger than him as a 15 year old, being able to admit it to himself and others, than he could after pretty much his whole life. He looked at Remus again. He was crying, so Sirius reached out his thumb and stroked it along his cheek wiping away the salty river that was making its way down the smooth face belonging to his friend.

Harry packed a bag quickly, chucking into it everything he thought he would need, food, clothes, money. A phone. No he couldn't even take that. He would have to get a new one so people couldn't contact him. He zipped up the huge bag with surprising ease, before tugging on a pair of his most comfortable trainers, new ones that Sirius had got at the beginning of the summer for him. On the basis that he didn't want his own money, so used it in every way possible, and it was not out of charity for Harry. He rushed down the stairs, heavy footed not caring that they would hear. Subconsciously, he wanted them to stop him, to tell him that he would be fine. That they loved him. No matter what.

Remus calmed, turned to Sirius and stated. 'I know you've wanted to hide this from everyone all these years, but I really think that the time has come for people to know. I'm sorry but I can't leave Harry like this, we told James because we said we would look after Harry no matter what. If this means we have to tell him, to help him, to fulfil our promise to James. That is what we have to do.'

Bang! Both of the men looked up.
